All have reached a certain standard to be placed in the top 24 in the UK for their category, and now they hope to follow in the footsteps of UK ice dance idols Penny Coomes and Nick Buckland.

The sextet have already competed at events across the country, performing dances such as the foxtrot, blues and even the American waltz.

The competition will be tough at Sheffield, where they will perform two pattern dances and then a free dance routine, carefully and creatively choreographed and featuring difficult footwork, spins and twizzles.
